A study of $B^{0} \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ decays using the BaBar detector

This thesis reports on the sensitivity of the BaBar detector to the study of CP violation in the B system. Due to the presence of $\pi^{0}$'s in most channels of interest to CP violation studies, an electromagnetic calorimeter with high efficiency and good energy resolution for low energy photo...

description This thesis reports on the sensitivity of the BaBar detector to the study of CP violation in the B system. Due to the presence of $\pi^{0}$'s in most channels of interest to CP violation studies, an electromagnetic calorimeter with high efficiency and good energy resolution for low energy photons is needed for good $\pi^{0}$ and thus B mass resolution. A beam test of a prototype CsI electromagnetic calorimeter and its response to low energy electrons and pions is presented.
